ABSTRACT
The existing approach has a lot of uncertainty, which makes attendance taking incorrect and wasteful. Whenever the authority is
unable to enforce the previous system's regulations, a slew of issues occur. The difficulty with this strategy is that it takes time, and
the manual procedure has the potential to produce mistakes in the majority of situations. To address this issue, a QR code was used
to track student attendance during lecture hour. The website will mark and check attendance without the need for human
interaction by scanning individual QR codes supplied to students with a Smartphone. The scanned QR code will take you to a page
where you can fill out the student's details and save it to a database. The database is available for attendance verification and
mobile viewing. Faculty members can use their smartphones to view the attendance list. It is possible to view the attendance sheet
that is kept in the database. The major goal of this study is to implement a QR code-based attendance system at the Department of
Computer Science and Engineering at Ambalika Institute of Management and Technology (AIMT) in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh,
India, with the goal of improving performance and accuracy.

VIII. CONCLUSION
Figure 12 The Proposed System Flow Diagram An attendance system is just as vital as the lecture itself since
it helps teachers to keep track of their students' absences and
respond appropriately. Because students may fake their
attendance with the aid of others, the traditional attendance
method is no longer deemed credible. The electronic
attendance system is the way of the future. Current electronic
solutions, on the other hand, need specially built gadgets that
may be too expensive for a learning institution. As a result,
this system assists in avoiding the failure of the proof of
